Fixing qmpbackup dirty bitmap
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It can happen that bin/exporter will fail with:
CRITICAL - main: Error executing backup: Bitmap 'qmpbackup-virtio0-NNN' is inconsistent and cannot be used
In such case it is required to:
* stop the kvm
* use qemu-img info virtual.qcow2 to find the bitmap value, it shall be qmpbackup-virtio0-NNN
* remove the bitmap value with qemu-img bitmap --remove virtual.qcow2 qmpbackup-virtio0-NNN
* start back the kvm
* re-rexecute the backup with bin/exporter
Such situation might happen when more than one exporter is running in the same time.
